Program Development
Given the success of the NSF supported PROGRESS program within the geosciences community, Dr. Melissa Burt scaled the program to engineering at CSU. The PROGRESS for Engineers workshop and mentoring program in the Walter Scott, Jr. College of Engineering began in 2020. In addition, secured a three-year commitment of funds from HP, Inc to offer the program to first and 2nd year students who identify as women in the College of Engineering. This investment not only includes workshop, mentoring, and networking opportunities but will also provide four-$1000 scholarships to students who participate in PROGRESS for Engineers.
